• 7

• 6

• 5

• 4

Task 2: Write an equation that links force to work

• F= Work x distance

• Work= Force x distance

• Work = Force/ Distance

• Work = Distance/force

Task 3:

1- If the weight of the car is =20000   N , Its mass =               kg 

• 196000

• 2000

• 2039

• 1939

Task 3:

2- The car is traveling with a speed:v = 28  m/s   then it crashed t a tree which stopped the car in a distance 

d= 30 cm

The car’s kinetic energy before the crash =. J

• 28546

• 784000

• 900000

• 799288

Task 2:

3- According to Work Energy Equivalence, loss in kinetic energy is = work done by the brakes

Work = F x d 

impact force F   =                N

• 239786

Task 3

4- This force is eequivalent to a mass of : tonnes

• 272

• 1000

Task 4:

Calculate for this driver (car of weight 20000 N) at speed (28 m/s) with seatbelt on, the impact force. 

Remember the seatbelt increases the stopping distance 4 times.

Force= N
